Down to a single box. P5Q with a 4 core and 4 gigs of ram. Used to help keep the site fresh and active and to play the occasional game.

Eee 701/XPliteSP2/1GB(4GBSSD/8GBSD) - Daily/Site work and travelling. --------- Family rigs - (hastle .... maybe ) .... 4. A7N8X/3200 Barton/700MB/XP/4200Ti - Parents daily (my old sys: 2001~?) 5. Foxconn MB/AM2 3000/1GB/XP - Older sisters family - daily browsing 6. AM2/XPSP3 - Youngest brothers system - parent next sys. 7. Compaq - laptop. Brothers system - knackered - another reason to sell mine. ---------

Main rig is in sig. Pretty much use it for everything, gaming, taking care of my business, managing a portfolio, music and video encoding. Running simulations of racing cylinder heads. It sees quite a bit of action from every angle.. Other rigs would include an AMD X2 based rig that runs my shop during the day and transfers the days workload to my home server (Q6600 on an Asus P5K WS with 16GB memory) so I can finish it up at night. @Bonesaw The AR does alright as long as you stick with 9X (or possibly higher) multiplier quads. The Q6600 should be pretty easy to take to 400FSB on your board.

I used to have my spec in my signature but with so many links to mods I couldn't fit all the text within the limit. So I had to scratch it. 1. main rig (Dungeon Case) - Gaming, CAD, Photoshop, Websites, Flash, Extra data (game mods, pictures, video, music) 2. Internet rig - Mostly internet and games for lan parties 3. gaming rig (Frozen Case) - older hardware but still plays most games 4. gaming rig (Cross Case) - older hardare too and runs in lan parties 5. gaming rig - my new budget system just for lan parties 6. dedicated server - simple BTX machine for running game servers, you guessed it... lan parties 7. Future Server - been wating over a year to purchase SATA drives for a RAID configuration... otherwise its ready to be my full fledged server.

samuknow can you get any higher on that e6400 under water than 3.3? ccperf721p so i'll be fine with a q6600 or q6700 and why is that? it would be cool to one day get water cooling. and my other computers are a 5600+ with two gigs in some asus btx motherboard and a 2200+ with a 1 gig and a 6600gt, i got back from a friend from my first build.

Defining main rig is an interesting question - my systems are a bit inter-related! 1. IBM T30 with a faulty memory slot is probably the machine that I use as a computer most often. 2. Athlon 64 @?? GHz with 1GB RAM - MythTV box 2. VIA Nehemiah 1GHz with 256MB RAM - Firewall/mail server 3. PowerPC MPC8241 266MHz with 64MB RAM - NAS server

Almost every board from the 975X up will run a quad, but they will be FSB limited by the Northbridge when overclocking. Using the higher multiplier Q6600 or Q6700 lessens the load on the Northbridge so decent clocks can still be achieved.

i've gotten in the 425 range with my current board. a quad at 3.4 is all i'd be after. this 8x i got now is making 3.4 difficult on my e6400.

![]() The EGG just had to use UPS. My Asus P5Q arrives Monday, but of course you know that, don't cha'? just what does the curse want? Chicken blood? I'll head out right now! Frog sacrifice? There arn't any in Spokane but I'll order some from Alabama! Un-mentionable sex acts? I'll order more frogs! BIG ones! ![]() I just need to know what the curse wants to leave this one alone. Bonesaw, I almost forgot. Now I can put up my rig for you. It's in my signiture, as you can see. I don't do any gameing. Mine is mostly used for my entertainment, in all of it's variables. What is not in the sig is the two speaker systems I have. Microfts Digital Sound System 80 for the DVD movies and Concerts on the TV. And logitech X540 5.1 Suround sound System for music that's on the computer. Then there is AOA, OC'ing, folding, learning, etc.
